STARTS ON TWO YEARS' TOUR OF THE WORLD two Bob Athon nnd Effie Johnson, the people who have been amusing capacity ar houses for tho Inst four weeks at tho Isis, return for tho Ias.1 jhreo days of this week, opening to night in their exceedingly funny song and patter act. This act is full of originality and has the distinction ot feeing now and up to date. On New Year's klay these people sail for Australia wlioro they play a thirty two weoks' engagement on tho Ki cards tour. From there thoy go to Manila, Japan, China, South Africa, Franco, Germany nnd England. They will bo gone at least two years, and probably longor.

Look at tho nds for tho ohnnco to buy tho property you neod at a "rijjht pic." (Oregon Journal.) After trying the convict labor on the Crater Lake wncon road for fif teen days, tho oitixons of Medford nnd the section of Jackson county in which the work is being carried on arc enthusiastic over the results and predict n success beyond the expec tation of even Governor West, ac cording to Br. J. V. Bodily of Medford who is visiting in the city. 4iWhen (Wornor West sent Ihe convicts to uso ho gave the charge of them to George Putnam of ihe Mail Tribune, William Gcrig, general mnungor of the Pacific & Eastern railway nnd myself.'' said Dr. Roddy. ''Of course we arc not no?- in actual charge of the men. but we are respon sible for them while they are there. "The camp contains twenty-seven at present nnd but one mnn is with them. Superintendent Grieves, repre senting the county court nnd super using the const ruction work. N firearm, barricades, chains or any thing else of that diameter are to be seen around the camp nnd the dres of the men would not indicate that the camp was other thnn an ordinary road camp. "The convicts arc far happier tlwn at the penitentiary and all say Hint they would far rather be there tlrm at Salem. We are providing them with ns good food and quarters a possible. "Instead of looking upon tho estab lishment of such a camp with di fnvor nnd apprehension the people of that section are all pleased with the work being accomplished and are boosting the system. Wc have found the work to be a great success and ery efficiently done. I ft fact, the efficiency of this crew is equal to '.f not a little better than Hint of a reg ularly paid crew. "The convicts arc being paid at the rate of 23 cents a day and all cx !cnses. We have found that ns Tar as the ex)oiiso of building ronds un der this system is concerned it i about o0 per cent of what it would be with ordinary paid labor. Thus wc can make onr road funds do twice as much. "Wc hope to got more men for thii work nnd will not quit when this road is completed. The noxt to be taken ui will probably be the Pacific high way and after that the roads through out tho county. "As to how the convicts feel nbout being placed on their honor, an inci dent occurred the other day which gives an illustration. One of the men had been sent seventeen miles from camp with a team and wagon for supplies. Time passed and he did not return. The superintendent be came somewhat worried. A fellow convict to the superintendent that it was a safe bet that tho man would return nnd sure enough about !) o'clock that evening ho npponrcd. The men are all anxious to show that those who are knocking tho system are wrong and that they can be trust ed. "For the proscnl wo nro keeping them as far as possible in the more mnuutifinoiiB and less thickly popu lated districts in order that they need not be subjoctcd to any more temp tations than nocoKsary. When they have had their liberty Jong enough to become accustomed to it they will bo proof against temptation." NAPA, Cal.
